Old aerial photo of Carpenters Road
This photo is from the Flickr page of Fin Fahey. He is a diligent and quality photographer of the East End.
He says; "Looking east from above Hackney Wick. This is taken from the Greater London Plan 1944 which I just acquired (Crown copyright, so reproducible now after 50+ years). No date is given, though I imagine this shot may date from the 1930s. The legend says: ' Stratford. Road, rail and canal feeding, but also strangling an industrial area.'
